Wishing you all a very happy holi !! Its a colorful spring festival celebrated here in India and I wish that it brings lots of happiness and good things in life for all of you!

And on this colorful occasion, I thought I'd share something different and something close to my heart with you all. I have been crafting right from when I was a little kid and I have always loved to explore different forms of art and craft one of which being the traditional folk art of India.

India has a very rich culture when it comes to art and off late I have been hooked to giving all different forms of folk art a try. After I tried my hands at Madhubani last year which is a folk art from the state of Bihar, I am now hooked to another tribal art form called Gond from the states of Central India (Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Orissa, Andhra Pradesh)

I love the way these Gond Paintings look. They are simple and yet so detailed. Its all about filling in the everyday life motifs with dots, dashes and lines.

Lots of Hero Arts Stamp and some super bright colors to go with the colorful Holi Theme of the challenge. I hope you like it! Do visit the CraftyJC blog to see more inspiration and take part in the challenge. There are some awesome prizes to be won.
This is a super quick post so if you have any questions on how I made this card, please leave me a comment and I will make sure I answer your queries.
Hope you like it! Thanks for vis…
